Qatar Living Jobs Scraper

Export every job on Qatar Living into a clean spreadsheet or JSON feed — with company, city, seniority, contract type, work mode, required languages, how many people already applied, salary ranges, and a flag showing which listings have already expired.

No login. No proxies. No browser. Just fast, structured Qatar job-market data.

Why this one is different

Qatar Living keeps job posts visible on the site long after they close. Listings expire 30 days after posting, and in our measurements, between 4% and 19% of listings on a given day had already expired but were still displayed. Every row here carries ageDays, expiresAtEstimate and isLikelyExpired, and you can filter dead listings out entirely with one checkbox.

It also reports applicantCount — how many candidates have already applied — which no other Qatar jobs dataset exposes.

Who this is for

• Recruitment agencies placing candidates into Qatar from South Asia, the Philippines and Africa
• HR and compensation teams benchmarking salaries in Doha
• Job boards and aggregators adding Qatar coverage
• Labour-market researchers and journalists tracking Gulf hiring
• AI agents needing live Qatar job data through the Apify MCP server

What you get

Every row, always:

Field	Example	Filled
title	CCTV Technician	100%
company	Veritas Technology CFM	100%
city / country	Doha / Qatar	99%
seniority	Entry Level	99%
employmentType	Full-Time, Contract, Freelance	100%
workMode	On-Site, Hybrid, Remote	94%
applicantCount	40	68% (shown by the site on most, not all, posts)
languages	["Arabic", "English", "Hindi"]	44% (only when the employer specifies)
postedRelative / postedDateEstimate / ageDays	"11 hours ago" / ISO / 0	100%
isLikelyExpired / expiresAtEstimate	false / ISO	100%
sourceUrl, jobId, companyId, scrapedAt	—	100%

Fill rates come from a full 160-row export, measured — not estimated.

Turn on Include full description and salary and each row also gets:

Field	Example
description	Full description as clean text (descriptionHtml keeps the original)
salaryText / salaryMin / salaryMax / currency / salaryPeriod	"2000 - 3000 QAR" / 2000 / 3000 / QAR / MONTH — present on about 60% of jobs, since not every employer publishes pay
datePosted / expiresAt	Exact dates published by the site
experienceMonths	24

One row per job. No joining, no post-processing. Export as CSV, Excel, JSON or XML.

Input

{
  "keyword": "technician",
  "maxItems": 200,
  "includeDescription": true,
  "excludeExpired": true,
  "postedWithinDays": 7
}

Input	What it does
keyword	Filter on title, company or seniority. Empty returns everything.
maxItems	Stop after N jobs. The board typically holds 120–160 live listings, depending on the day, so 200 returns the whole board.
includeDescription	Adds description, salary and exact dates from each job's own page.
excludeExpired	Skips listings past their 30-day expiry. You are not charged for skipped rows.
postedWithinDays	Only jobs posted in the last N days. Set to 1 for a daily new-vacancy feed.

Filters run before billing — you only pay for rows you actually receive.

FAQ

Does this need a login on the source site? No. It reads only public, server-rendered pages that anyone can view in a browser.

Does it respect robots.txt? Yes. It never touches the disallowed /api/ paths, keeps a 2-second delay between requests, and runs at most 2 requests in parallel.

Why do some jobs have no salary? Employers choose whether to publish pay. Roughly 60% of listings include a salary range; the rest show none, and expired listings are the most likely to be missing it. Every enriched row always includes the full description and exact posting dates.

What happens if I set a maximum cost per run? The Actor stops cleanly as soon as your budget can't cover another job. If your budget covers a job but not its description, that last job is delivered without the description and you are not charged for it. The row is marked enrichmentSkippedReason: "spending-limit". You never pay for data you don't receive.

Does it collect personal data about job seekers? No. Employer job postings only. No candidate names, CVs or contact details.

How do you know a job is expired? Job detail pages publish validThrough, which is always 30 days after datePosted. Listing rows use that 30-day rule as an estimate; enriched rows use the site's own validThrough date directly.

Why do a few jobs appear twice? Employers repost roles. The duplicates have different job IDs and different posting dates — turn on excludeExpired and the old copy disappears.

What about the Domestic (household) jobs tab? That section renders client-side through endpoints robots.txt disallows, so it isn't included. This Actor covers the corporate section in full.

Can my AI agent call this? Yes. It runs through the Apify MCP server and charges per event, so agents can call it directly.
